The Modern Programming Languages book by Adam Webber contains a chapter (the
last chapter) called 'The History of Programming Languages'. He covers mostly
Prolog, ML and Java, which are the languages that he uses in the book. But he
goes briefly over other languages as well: Plankalkul, Fortran, Lisp, Algol
and Smalltalk.
